Stop Cop City Campaigners Decry Decision to Not Charge Georgia Troopers Who Shot Activist 57 Times
57 huh? Seems absolutely on the up & up and I didn't need to read the article. Acab
Georgia opened up a massive military-compound like police training facility in a forest. Protesters were camped out nearby.
Cops came and cleared out the camp and executed this man. They claim he shot at them and they returned fire. Forensics showed the victim had no gunshot residue on his hands. There is also apparently body camera footage but cops of course won't release it.
The body cam footage also shows the cops likely shot each other.
It's not built yet, and hopefully never will be. The cops were attacking the protestors because they wanted, among other things, to clear the way for construction.
Maybe a strange question but are there bad-cop murders in the US?
I mean you could find out quite easily who the shooter was and considering the quite tense situation with police brutality it doesn't seem far fetched that family or friends might want to get revenge.
Are there cases where people try to take justice into their own hands?
Jesus christ. I appreciate the synopsis, I hate the outcome.
And they're using RICO to go after activists too.
